Those who had come with Marquis Lu hadn't expected Mo Ruohua to suddenly attack. They stood there in a daze, not knowing how to react.
At this time, a group of soldiers rushed in from outside and surrounded everyone.
Mo Ruohua raised her hand. "Lock them up and interrogate them."
These young military officers were intimidated by her power and didn't dare to resist. One of them couldn't help but say, "This was Marquis Liu's idea. Marquis Lu brought us here. It has nothing to do with us!"
The others also came to their senses and began to defend themselves. There were even some who hurriedly brought up their backgrounds, afraid that Mo Ruohua would execute them in the name of military law.
Mo Ruohua ignored them. After a while, the deputy walked over. "Lieutenant, it's all clear. This matter was instigated by a Marquis called Liu Mi."
Mo Ruohua said, "Have someone clean this place up." She stood up and walked out.
After arriving outside, spiritual light flashed from her body, and she directly flew into the air. After only a short moment, she landed on a sentry post of a military fort.
Looking at the officer's cloak she was wearing, the soldiers immediately saluted her.
She looked around and asked, "Where is Liu Mi?"
The soldiers looked at each other. Someone pointed outside. "Lieutenant, Marquis Liu is over there."
Mo Ruohua looked in the direction he was pointing at and saw a group of young military cadets gathered there. Among them was a tall, skinny man who looked to be in his thirties. His lips were thin and his face was average, but when he looked at others, his eyes would always twinkle.
She immediately walked along the parapet in that direction.
Those military officers were waiting for news from Marquis Lu and the others. Someone said, "Marquis Lu and the others should have arrived long ago, right? Why hasn't there been any news? Could it be that they couldn't do it and ran away? "
"Don't say that. I know Marquis Lu very well. Although he's a bit impulsive, he's also very responsible. This matter isn't easy, so he's still working hard."
Someone said angrily, "It must be those two lieutenants who are unwilling. Hmph, the military gave them this identity and gave them this armor so that they could be our military support. But now they're not even willing to show their faces in front of those cultivators. What is this?"
"Sigh, the matter isn't settled yet. You can't say that."
Marquis Liu stood to one side with a smile but didn't say anything. In fact, after Marquis Lu had left, he hadn't spoken much.
Just as everyone was talking, someone glanced over and suddenly said happily, "Look, isn't that Lieutenant Mo?"
Everyone turned their heads and saw a valiant woman dressed in a captain's uniform with a sword hanging from her waist walking towards them.
There were actually quite a number of female lieutenants in the army, but Mo Ruohua was the only one in the encampment with such an imposing aura.
Everyone thought that she had been persuaded by Lu Junhou, and their faces lit up with joy.
When Mo Ruohua came close, she glanced over and stared at Marquis Liu. "You're Liu Mi?"
When Marquis Liu saw Mo Ruohua, he was secretly delighted, but now he felt that something was wrong. He saluted and replied carefully, "That's me. Greetings, lieutenant."
Mo Ruohua suddenly reached out and touched the hilt of her sword.
When Marquis Liu saw her move, his eyes couldn't help but tighten. Then he heard the sharp warning of the Observer. With a thought, the profound armor covered his whole body in an instant. At the same time, he retreated rapidly.
However, all of this was useless. A sword light flashed past like a bolt of lightning, and his head flew off.
In the end, a headless corpse flew far away and crashed into the wall of the fortress in the distance. It then slid down and fell into the trench below the fortress. It bounced a few times before rolling to the bottom of the trench.
Mo Ruohua shook her hand and calmly shook off the blood on the blade, then put it back into the scabbard.
She didn't wear any armor at all. She had used the power of the divine robe to cut down the opponent.
This was because the opponent didn't have the courage to fight her, and also because she was an armored lieutenant. Unlike other military academies, she didn't need to lead troops. She only needed to focus on fighting. In terms of combat skills, she was far superior to others.
The group of young military academies on the military fort had been smiling, but at this moment, their expressions suddenly froze. Then, as if they had just woken up from a dream, they suddenly scattered outwards. At the same time, the profound armor on their bodies floated up from below, flying all the way to the distance before stopping. Then, they looked at her with shocked and angry gazes.
At this moment, rows of soldiers also surged out from the fortress and surrounded her. However, they were also extremely nervous at this moment.
Someone suppressed the fear in his heart and asked, "Lieutenant Mo, what are you doing? Can you give us an explanation? "
Mo Ruohua ignored the soldiers around her. She scanned the crowd and said, "Marquis Liu incited the morale of the troops and conspired against the law. Therefore, I am here to enforce the military law."
After saying this, she turned and left. None of the soldiers around her dared to move. In reality, it was useless to move. Everyone knew in their hearts what it meant to be an armored lieutenant. Even if everyone here swarmed her, they wouldn't be a match for her.
After a while, everyone saw that her figure had completely disappeared. Only then did they relax. Someone looked at the corpse in the trench and said anxiously, "This is serious. Quickly report to the general."
The news of Liu Junhou being killed on the spot in the barracks quickly spread throughout the army. Cao Du was also the first to receive the news. He frowned at first, then asked for someone to come over. After asking about the whole story, he paced back and forth in the barracks, thinking.
At this moment, a young lieutenant rushed in and said angrily, "This is outrageous. That Mo Ruohua actually dared to kill my men. Uncle, isn't this not giving you face?"
Cao Du stopped and turned around. His expression was calm as he said, "Oh? You don't think it's good? Why do I think it's good? "
The young lieutenant was stunned. After holding it in for a while, he said, "But, but …"
Cao Du walked to the main seat and sat down. "I've already warned Lu Gangying and the others to restrain their thoughts and not cause trouble for me. They actually dared to incite the morale of the troops in private. How bold! Even if Lieutenant Mo didn't make a move, I would have taken their heads! "
He detested such behavior. This person actually dared to ignore his previous warning. This was clearly going against his authority as the commanding general.
That young lieutenant said with conviction, "But even if they were in the wrong, it's not Mo Ruohua's turn to meddle. Where does this put you, Uncle?"
Cao Du looked at him and said, "Very well. You didn't learn how to lead an army in battle, but you learned about relationships without a teacher. Why did the commandant give two armored lieutenants the right to make decisions in battle? Do you think this is a joke? Those are the two knives of the commandant, knives used to kill! "
He pointed at his head and said, "You need to use your brain for some things. Don't be like Lu Gangying, who jumped out after being instigated by others. I don't want to see my own nephew being brought to me with his head in his hands!" He waved his hand and said, "Get out!"
The young lieutenant was still stunned. The deputy beside Cao Du came up and whispered, "Young Master, the general is angry. Don't say too much. Go out."
Only then did the young lieutenant walk out unwillingly.
The deputy turned around and said, "General, Young Master is also inexperienced. After a few more years of experience, I'm sure he will understand."
Cao Du said, "That's why it's right not to let him lead the troops now. Otherwise, it will only harm him." He sighed. "If not for my little sister only having this one son and wanting him to fight for a future, I really wouldn't have brought him into the army."
The deputy didn't continue the conversation. He only said, "General, this matter …"
Cao Du pondered for a moment and said, "Let's stop here. The war is imminent. There's no need to get to the bottom of it now. Everything can be discussed after the war."
He knew very well that this matter wasn't so simple. There must be some people who couldn't stand the close cooperation between him and the Xuanfu. So, they wanted to use this opportunity to create a conflict between the two sides.
Fortunately, Mo Ruohua acted decisively this time. Although she might not have realized it herself, the result was undoubtedly good.
As for the remaining people, although they all deserved to be killed, he couldn't dig deeper. Especially before the war, it wasn't suitable to do such things. Only after winning the war would it be easier to talk.
Perhaps Mo Ruohua's actions had intimidated some people. In the following period of time, the camp was peaceful and no more accidents occurred. The entire army was fully prepared for the war.
Another month passed and it was already the fifth month. The number of warships on the wasteland had reached more than fifteen thousand. The war could begin at any time. All sides were nervously preparing.
On the fifth day of the month, a fiery rainbow suddenly flew through the sky from the north. It was heading straight for the square station.
Just as the fiery rainbow was about to land, two sword lights suddenly shot out from the square station, one on the left and one on the right. The fiery rainbow turned and withdrew all of its momentum. Not even the slightest bit of power leaked out. Then, a red-robed Daoist appeared from within.
This Daoist was about thirty years old. He was handsome and elegant, but there was a murderous aura between his brows. He carried a long sword on his back. His crimson robes fluttered like torches. The aura on his body was even more intense. It was filled with an oppressive aggressiveness. He glanced at the two people in front of him and shouted, "Get out of my way."
Yu Fu cupped his hands and said, "Martial Uncle Wang, Martial Uncle Mo's matter has nothing to do with Zhang Xuanzheng. It's just Ancestor Yuan Tong's scheme. We can't be fooled. Moreover, Xuanzheng has avenged Martial Uncle Mo and even sent her soul back. We owe him a debt of gratitude. It's unreasonable for you to come knocking on our door like this."
The Daoist surnamed Wang said coldly, "Who wants his revenge? Is my sword just a decoration? What you think is your business. What I do is my business. Don't stop me. "
The other Daoist who came with Yu Fu said, "Martial Brother Wang, if you want to find trouble with Zhang Xuanzheng, we can also not stop you. But now that the expedition to Shuangzhou is imminent, it won't be good if there are any casualties on both sides. Why don't we help you arrange a private time with Zhang Xuanzheng after the battle?"
The Daoist surnamed Wang snorted and said proudly, "What does the battle between mortals have to do with me? I have my own Dao. Why should I care about other things? "
He waved his sleeve. Suddenly, a myriad of fiery lights shot out. Yu Fu and the other Daoist hurriedly drew their swords to parry. It was in this opening that he turned into a fiery rainbow again and charged straight down!
